Oliver,
Frequently, if you go into the levels dialogue box, click on the white eye
dropper, select a portion of the image that you want to be absolute white
that isn't quite 255,255,255 and use the eyedropper there, the whole image
will come into balance.  Sometimes you will also have to repeat with the
black eyedropper in an appropriate black point.

Or, if you are using PS7, use the auto color correct and that works very
well a lot of the time.

You might have to do some tweaking in the channel mixer to bring shadow or
highlights into what you prefer.

Thanks for asking.

Don
